This is a comparative study between traditional group work and cooperative learning among 9 graders at a Swedish high school. The classes did an assignment that involved translating and then both students and teachers answered a questionnaire. An example of how profitable cooperative learning is is the fact that the speech activity was more equal in the cooperative groups. All the students in the cooperative groups had to contribute to the assignment in order to fulfill the assignment. The reason for higher speech activity is the structure of cooperative learning, which involves roles suited for the assignment.

Informationsteknologi branschen är enligt en omfattande arbetsmiljöundersökning sämst iSverige när det gäller att främja och aktivt arbeta för en god arbetsmiljö, ett fenomen somäven präglar vissa IT-utbildningar. Vi har med denna uppsats valt att undersöka huruvida enstudent och dennes studiemetoder påverkas av sin arbetsmiljö. Vi har för att kunna få framstudenters egna upplevelser och tankar gjort en kvalitativ fallstudie i form avfokusgruppsundersökningar på två studieorter; den Matematiska och Systemtekniskainstitutionen (MSI) på Växjö universitet samt Centrum för informationslogistik (CIL) iLjungby, två skolor som tillhandahåller olika IT-stöd för sina studenter. MSI har ett IT-stödbestående av klassiska datorsalar medans CIL som IT-stöd erbjuder studenterna på skolan attleasa nya bärbara datorer. Vi påpekar och drar slutsatser kring skillnader i arbetsmiljön på deolika studieorterna.

The texts have been analyzed using Palmér & Östlund-Stjärnegårdh?s (2005) model for student text analysis.

Media often discusses school, teachers and students. These discussions are often based on an adult perspective and students' views on the subject are not enhanced. Therefore, this paper intends to examine students' views on what they think makes a good teacher.

The theoretical basis for this essay is the definition of an authentic teacher that which in this essay will be discussed from the point of view of Fibaek Laursen (2004).

In order to drive innovation and growth in a nation is it important to have innovative companies.

Venture capitalists? see the potential the product and/or entrepreneur possesses and are therefore more willing to take the risk in investing in these companies.

Jag har undersökt om och hur hållbar utveckling finns med i pedagogers tankar och val på förskolan. Dessutom har jag studerat vilket inflytande pedagoger och barn har i verksamheten när det gäller hållbar utveckling. Jag har tillsammans med en annan student gjort besök på 10 olika förskolor och där intervjuat en pedagog på varje ställe. Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ intervjumetod för att vi ville nå djupare svar på våra frågor. Även om hållbar utveckling inte finns med som begrepp i läroplanen anser ändå många pedagoger att det ändå är ett mål de arbetar mot.
